How Much Money Are Marriott Points Worth?
According to FinanceBuzz, the value of Marriott points ranges between 0.81 cents to 1.0 cents depending on the cash price of the hotel that day.
You can get an estimated value of the points when you want to redeem them for a stay at the hotel by doing a simple calculation.
First, know the price per night stay at the hotel that night and the number of points they need for a night stay. Multiply the price by 100 to convert it to cents and divide by the number of points needed. This should give you the value of the points that day.
How to Sell Marriott Points on Your Own
Since you cannot directly from their website, you'll need to find third-party buyers and get a quote for the points you are selling. Some buyers set a minimum limit on the number of points they can sell.
Once you have identified a buyer, visit their website to find out the process, you'll need to follow to successfully sell your points.
This could be a long and hectic process, especially because these third-party buyers offer low rates and a complicated selling process.
